Time Text
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, welcome to Radio Renaissance.
I'm your host, Jared Taylor, with American Renaissance, and with me is my indispensable co-host, Paul Kersey.
And today is October 25th, Year of Our Lord 2023.
And I just checked, Mr. Kersey, and this is episode number 365, which is to say, if we had done one every day for a year, the year would have been up.
But we do one once a week, and so I think that averages out to about Well, that must work out to something like seven years of doing this.
Have we been doing this for that long?
Starting in 2016, yes.
I didn't realize I'd been alive for that long.
Wow.
Boy.
Well, you know, this reminds me of somebody's definition for insanity, doing the same thing over and over again and hoping for some different result.
Well, the white race has not yet been saved, so we must be insane.
We're not trying to serve everyone, Mr. Taylor.
That's the most important.
That's right.
We'll save the white race one white man, one woman, one child at a time.
Well, okay.
Well, let's get right to all these wonderful comments we have and all the important, exciting news stories we have, because as usual, our cup runneth over, even though our time runneth under.
Comment.
Now, this has to do with the story we mentioned last week about Morgan State University tearing down a wall.
Because they said it was a racist wall put up by white people to keep the black students out, and then four months later—only four months later—they backtracked and whipped up their own wall to keep the neighboring black people out.
Oh, dear.
Oh, dear.
And our listener writes in to say, no doubt by now, you have been informed that the public relations department at Morgan State University immediately and categorically denied any rumors of a wall.
I can say unequivocally, said spokesman Larry Jones, that when the president, David Wilson, said wall, he really meant fence.
OK.
Of course.
And yes, there were stories about the fence, but it certainly seems to be that its purpose, fence or wall, is certainly to keep people out.
One news station spoke the need to expand existing fencing by showing footage of a four-foot-high ornamental fence on campus that wouldn't stop a 12-year-old turnstile jumper on the Baltimore Metro.
Surely the officials have something a little more substantial than that.
While the media softballed the story, they mentioned that Morgan State's also considering other security improvements to help check for guns.
By using such things as metal detectors.
The university seems to be unaware that metal detectors and security cameras are racist, because they will disproportionately discriminate against blacks.
And just to conclude, the university said it will take as much as $23 million and up to $40 million to get all the security enhancements in place, and they hope to get federal and state funding to pay for it.
Mr. Kersey, I believe that means, once again, you and I get to pay for the fact that black people shoot each other so often.
It's our fault, so we better pay for it.
Another comment.
I've noticed that the Washington Post has started capitalizing both black and white instead of capitalizing only black and leaving whites in lowercase.
Good to see there is some bottom to their madness off which they will bounce.
But in a way, says our listener, I liked how the double standard laid bare the hatred towards whites.
I have to agree with that.
You know, the double standard was really striking.
I wonder what the discussion was inside the Post newsroom when they decided to give all us white folks a promotion.
But I guess, Mr. Curtis, that means we's as good as black folk now.
I never thought I'd see the day, but we are free at last.
I googled the AP Stylebook to see if the AP Stylebook itself has changed, because WAPO is supposed to follow the AP Stylebook, but it doesn't.
And it's intriguing that I haven't heard anything from the woke crowd about Washington Post unilaterally giving us all this unmerited promotion.
But the AP Stylebook says It is now to capitalize black, conveying an essential and shared sense of history, identity, and community among people who identify as black.
A.P.
Staub will continue to lowercase the term white.
White people generally do not share the same history and culture or the experience of being discriminated against because of skin color.
Well, we sure do now.
White people's skin color plays into systemic inequalities and injustices, and we want our journalism robustly to explore those problems.
But capitalizing the term white, as is done by white supremacists, risks subtly conveying legitimacy to such beliefs.
Oh, boy.
So, yes, it looks like AP has not changed its tune, but Washington Post has.
Now this was an interesting correction to an error.
I can't remember whether it was I made it or you made it.
We both made it.
But a listener says in an earlier podcast, you said the entire South African Air Force has been grounded because blacks can't keep the planes in the air.
Not true.
I will go on record and say we both stated that.
I believe we did.
I believe we did.
We both put our foot in it.
As this story from South Africa notes, Only 85% of the South African Air Force fleet is out of action.
That means 233 aircraft have been grounded.
So they got a few, a few that can actually taxi down the runway.
As South Africa notes, this is not just a matter of being unable to defend our country.
We are also responsible for safety and security and rescue operations for this whole maritime area around South Africa down to the Antarctic.
The moment you can't fulfill your obligation to impact your images and how others see Africa as an international partner.
Well, Mr. Kersey, I believe I can speak for you with 100% sincerity in apologizing for maligning the South African Air Force.
We've done you wrong, South African Air Force, and we appreciate this correction.
OK, one more comment.
Last week, you and Mr. Kersey suggested that each state should designate its most honored and revered black petty criminal as a native son and state hero.
That was your idea.
Georgia has Ahmaud Arbery.
Texas has George Floyd.
Missouri has Michael Brown.
Florida, Trayvon Martin.
And this fellow riding from New York says, I vote for the New York state petty criminal Eric Garner.
And our listener adds, the best form of persuasion is laughter.
Well, sometimes you have to laugh just to keep from crying.
And for those of you who don't recall the Garner episode, what, that must have been about 10 years ago, you remember dates better than I do, but Eric Garner had been arrested by the NYPD more than 30 times, and at the time of this little incident, he was out on bail for selling untaxed cigarettes, driving without a license, marijuana possession, and false personalization.
I don't know what false personalization is, but maybe he was pretending to be somebody he wasn't, which I suspect would be a great temptation for a guy As fat and sick as he.
The arrest, and he was selling loosies, these are untaxed loose cigarettes, it seems like a minor
crime to me, but he'd done this over and over and over again. The arrest in which a white police
officer tried to take him down after he resisted arrest, took him down with an arm around the
throat, and he lay on the sidewalk for a while. And he was breathing, but he lost consciousness.
They called an ambulance, and he died of a heart attack in the ambulance.
Now, he had a heart condition.
He had asthma.
He was so fat and out of shape that he could not walk a single block without getting exhausted and huffing and puffing.
But this was considered murder by all black people everywhere around the world.
The arrest, however, was supervised by a black woman, NYPD Sergeant Kizzy Adonis.
Correct.
What a name for a woman.
Adonis.
And she was quoted in the original police report as saying, the perpetrator's condition did not seem serious and he did not appear to get worse.
Well, apparently it did get worse.
You know, in addition to this listing of every state's favorite son and honored petty criminal, we should maybe run a billboard on the ghetto lottery column.
Who has hit the biggest jackpot?
Because Garner's family, Garner's family got 5.9 million dollars because he died in the hands of the police.
Of course he had six children who had to share the swag, so the winnings were not as big as you might imagine.
They were distributed nicely, I'm quite sure.
Oh, I'm sure there was just a very amicable divvying up the pot, but his genes will live on.
Floyd's family, George Floyd's family, picked up $27 million and just did a little research on this, and even Michael Brown's family cashed in.
Despite the fact that there's absolutely no reason why he should have, what did the—I mean, the police officer who shot him was clearly in self-defense, but nope, doesn't make any difference.
The ghetto lottery winnings in this case was $1.5 million.
Michael Brown was fairly young, so I doubt he had six children, but who knows how many people had to split up the pie on that one.
Well, if you remember, Michael Brown's family, his mother and grandmother, got in a big fight back in 2014 on Canfield Drive there in Ferguson over who could sell the Michael Brown merch.
Oh, that's right.
That's right.
They were making big money doing that.
So who needs the 1.5 million?
Yeah, who has true rights, true rights to the Deathless legacy of the noble Michael Brown.
Well, Mr. Kersey, I'd like you to start off with, we've got a different pie we're splitting up now, and that has to do with Georgia congressional and statehouse districts.
How are they going to split up that pie?
Yeah, this story is just breaking today.
A judge 516 pages?
has ruled that Georgia's congressional and legislative districts are discriminatory and
must be redrawn. There's a federal drudge. He ruled Thursday, October 26th, that some of Georgia's
congressional state Senate and state house districts were drawn in a racially discriminatory
manner, ordering the state to draw an additional black majority congressional district.
U.S. Judge Steve Jones, in a 516 page order, also ordered- 516 pages?
Yep.
Yep.
516-page order also ordered the state to draw two new black majority district in Georgia's 56-member state Senate and five new black majority districts in its 180-member statehouse.
Jones ordered Georgia's Republican Majority General Assembly and governor to take action before December 8th, saying he won't permit 2024 elections to go forward under the current maps.
This is insanity, by the way.
That would require a special session as lawmakers aren't scheduled to meet again until January.
Jones' ruling follows a September trial in which plaintiffs argued that black voters are still fighting opposition from white voters and need federal help to get a fair shot, while the state argued court intervention on behalf of black voters wasn't needed.
The move could shift one of Georgia's 14 congressional seats from Republican-Democrat control.
GOP lawmakers redrew the congressional map from an 8-6 Republican majority to a 9-5 Republican majority in 2021.
For those listening, Georgia was about 72% white in 1990.
It's almost about 51, 52% white now in 2023.
So they're great.
It's almost about 51, 52 percent white now in 2023.
So the great replacement has happened and the Republicans have tried to keep a majority,
but now a federal judge has said, nope, nope, got to be racially, got to have equity when
it comes to congressional districts.
So the Georgia case is part of a wave of litigation after the U.S.
Supreme Court earlier this year stood behind its interpretation of the Voting Rights Act, rejecting the challenge to the law by Alabama.
Courts in Alabama and Florida ruled recently that Republican-led legislatures had unfairly diluted the voting power of black residents.
Legal challenges to congressional districts are also ongoing in Arkansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, New Mexico, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Utah.
Orders to draw new legislative districts could narrow Republican majorities in the state uh... and house and the state house and and senate but on
their own those changes and i'm not are unlikely to lead to a
democrat takeover that'll happen when georgia tips even further the electorate
goes you know majority non-white
jones wrote the conducted a thorough and sifting review of the evidence of the
case before concluding georgia violated the voting rights act
and in acting the current congressional legislative maps he wrote that he commends georgia for the great strides is
made to increase the political opportunities of black voters in the fifty
eight years since since that law was passed in 1965.
But those gains, Mr. Taylor, he determined, that in certain areas of the state, the political process is not equally open to black voters.
But Jones noted that despite the fact that all of the state's population grew over the last decade, Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Wait, wait.
Most of the increase is in Hispanics, probably.
I bet the percentage of blacks hasn't increased that much in Georgia.
It's increased significantly, actually.
You have a number of blacks.
Oh, I see.
All these northerners coming south.
They're coming back because, yeah, they're, you know, Detroit, Chicago and Philadelphia and Baltimore and New York.
You know, Albany and Buffalo, they've all been sufficiently negrified.
I bet that the percentage, well, in the absolute numbers, I bet the increase in Hispanics has
been more than the increase in blacks.
But I could be wrong about that.
In any case— But they don't matter in the eyes of this federal judge.
It's about blacks.
It's black, black, blackity black.
It's black run America, Mr. Taylor.
Well, you know, you are righter about that than I ever believed when you first coined that term, Mr. Kersey.
Remember, I used to say, hey, it's maybe run for the benefit of blacks, but because there's an aspect of the story of which you may be unaware, despite the fact that you're almost always aware of everything.
Do you know whether this judge, what was his name?
Judge Steve Jones.
Judge Steve Jones.
Do you know whether he's melanin-enhanced or melanin-deprived?
I have not looked it up, but I'm going to guess that he is melanin-enhanced.
He sure is.
I just checked.
He's melanin super-enhanced.
He looks like he could have walked out of the Congo forest.
He's so melanin super-enhanced.
Unbelievable.
There you go.
That's right.
Now, the news stories are never going to mention this, are they?
But yes, he is a, well, he's rooting for the home teams, what it boils down to.
And here's the important last paragraph.
The number, uh, again, he, despite the state's population growth, Jones contended that congressional legislative districts, the black majority made the same.
That echoes the key contention of the plaintiffs who argued repeatedly that the state added nearly 500,000 black residents between 2010 and 2020, but drew no new black majority state Senate districts and only two additional black majority state house districts.
They also said Georgia should have another black majority congressional district.
Basically, again, democracy in a multiracial society, democracy is racial headcount, and when things are done in a way that doesn't benefit certain racial segments.
Again, this is a story, I think Greg Hood has pointed this out on Twitter, Mr. Taylor, This story shows that the government believes in racial nationalism, just not for whites.
Yes, exactly.
It's that simple.
I sometimes approve of these stories.
They say, okay, black people need to be able to have black representatives in Congress.
How about white people?
How about white people?
And if they need black representatives, and black police officers, and black mayors, and black newscasters, and black everything else, and blackity blackity black, how about for white folks?
Ultimately, this is all an argument for separation.
But we are not supposed to draw the obvious conclusion.
Basically, everything, basically everything after the Voting Rights Act is an argument for separation and the fact that this reinforcement in a manner that befits exclusively blacks.
Again, I think there's so much in 2023 to be blackpilled about, but I think the and the aggregate, there's so many white pilling stories.
And to me, this is one of them, because the Gosh, I don't want to use this word, but I'm going to, but the jig is up.
It's obvious what's going on now.
And for our listeners out there, being someone who was born in Georgia and who spent a lot of time living in Alabama, these two states are basically under the black run America federal occupation where You have to create these districts that benefit black and black voters.
And let us not forget an important aspect of the story you just read.
The current Supreme Court decided this.
This is the court that is constantly being pilloried as super right-wing, ultra-conservative.
But no, no, no.
We've got to have special districts drawn from black people.
When will Hispanics require the same thing?
And Asians, and Hindus, and who else?
Nope, all perfectly typical once you start going down this crazy road.
Now I have another case for you.
Another case.
This one is a jet black pill, I'm afraid.
And this, I have got two updates.
One is the 2016 torture case.
This, you will recall as soon as I start describing it, this has to do with the saga of Jordan Hill and three of his pals.
In January 2017, he and Tisfaya Cooper and Brittany and Tanisha Cummington kidnapped a mentally disabled 18-year-old white boy and laughed as they tortured him.
The 18-year-old schizophrenic and ADD white boy had been dropped off by his parents at a McDonald's in suburban Streamwood, that's near Chicago, where the victim, who remains unnamed throughout, wanted to meet this black guy, Jordan Hill, because they had gone to school together and he thought Jordan Hill was a friend.
Bad decision.
Well, Hill used a stolen van to kidnap the victim and held him in captivity for three days, stuck in the van.
This is in January in Chicago.
Now, I don't know, the news accounts are very slim as to what happened during these three days, but he kept him locked up in a van.
On January 3rd, Hill and Tess Faya Cooper drove the victim to the apartment
of sisters Brittany and Tanishia Covington, all black cast here so far, where the four tied
up and tortured the victim for hours.
Brittany, the younger of the two Covington sisters, began a Facebook livestream, broadcasting
the attackers laughing as they bound, gagged, beat, and taunted the victim, cut out part
of his scalp with a knife, made him kiss the floor, and forced him to drink from a toilet.
They screamed, F white people, and forced the victim to repeat after them in shouting, F Trump.
This was an anti-Trump demonstration, you see.
And one of the perps actually contacted the victim's mother because they'd known each other in school and demanded a $300 ransom.
Kind of lowballing this, it seems to me.
And the Facebook live stream is only 28 minutes of what was an hours-long attack.
And, this is a poignant line, the police suspected that the perps stopped torturing this guy and left the apartment when downstairs neighbors complained about all the noise.
So, January 3rd, three days later, after this guy had been held and tortured, a police officer saw the victim walking with Jordan Hill, the ringleader.
The officer said the victim appeared injured and confused.
He was very badly dressed for a cold winter day.
The officer noted, I saw him wearing a tank top inside out and backwards, jean shorts and sandals.
He was bloodied.
He was battered.
And he decided to inquire.
He got the victim's name, ran it through a police database, and discovered that he was on the missing persons list.
Well.
So, the perps here were Jordan Hill, the schoolmate, and Tess Fia Cooper, both 18-year-old black males, and sisters Brittany Covington, also 18 years old, but Brittany's older sister, Tanishia—that's a new name on me, I would have expected it to be Tanishia, but it's Tanishia—who was 24 years old.
All had previous run-ins with the law, but Brittany Covington, the one who did the live stream, pleaded guilty to a charge of committing a hate crime and intimidation, and she got sentenced to four years of mere probation and $200 in community service.
She never saw the inside of a jail.
Never.
Now, Tanishia, the older sister who had the apartment, she copped a plea and she got three years in prison.
Just three years.
Tess Fia Cooper copped a plea and got seven.
Jordan Hill got eight years in prison.
Now, can you imagine—well, I mean, this is such a clichéd thing to say—how the book would have been thrown at white people who had done the same thing.
Oh, my God.
It would have been a movie made already, a Netflix special.
Oh, yes.
That's right.
That's right.
In any case, now, let's see.
They've all been released by now.
This is why this is in the news.
So, let's see.
Tuftafaya, the elder girl, the elder Covington, did four years.
And Jordan Hill, the ringleader, he faced up to 30 years in prison, but after having pleaded guilty, he was sentenced to just seven.
And at sentencing, Judge William Hooks told Hill to look at paintings and photographs of civil rights leaders hanging on the walls of his courtroom and shook his head when Hill was unable to identify portraits of Thurgood Marshall, Frederick Douglass, and Ida B. Wells, among others.
Now, you might ask, why were there paintings and photographs of civil rights leaders hanging on the walls of his courtroom?
Because guess what, Mr. Kersey?
I think your steel trap mind is beginning to clamp onto the essence of this.
Judge William Hooks is an African-American.
Another little detail omitted from every account of this story I've ever seen, I had to look him up.
Obviously, simply irrelevant.
Just like this redistricting story that you just told us about, the race of the judges absolutely doesn't matter.
But all of these utterly insane, super lenient—and one of the girls didn't even go to prison at all.
Another girl out in, what, three years?
And a little follow-up on African-American Judge Hook.
In January this year, he was removed from judicial duties.
Why?
He made what are called inappropriate and racist comments about Arabs.
He spoke stereotypically about people accused of domestic violence.
And he said Middle Eastern men are controlling and abusive.
I would shoot and kill men like that from Middle Eastern countries, he said, referring to his military service.
This was in a conversation with prosecutors, which they conveyed to the Arab lawyer defending an Arab defendant, and so attorney Matthew Fakhoury claimed, perhaps not legitimately, that this was evidence of his personal bias against me and my client.
Judge Hook eventually got his comeuppance, but I have never seen the slightest criticism for his having handed down such super lenient sentences in these cases.
I have another gruesome update, and this has to do with a much more recent case in Las Vegas, as you recall.
I guess it was a couple of months ago.
Jesus Ayala and Jazamir—Jazamir is one of these unique African-American names spelled J-A-Z-A-M-I-R—Jazamir Keyes, both faced charges of murder for stealing a car and deliberately running down and killing Andreas Propst, age 64, who was riding a bicycle.
You will recall the gruesome video of this, Mr. Kersey.
Ayala is a Hispanic, so we have this multi-culti duo.
This is diverse, rainbow America, hard at work.
He is Hispanic with a tattoo on his face, whereas Jazimir is African American, and the video taken from the dashboard view shows them running up on Propst and laughter and comments from inside the car as they smash Propst Who goes flying and then in the final image they turn around and there he is on the ground next to the curb.
And it's very clear.
There were no traffic anywhere.
They just deliberately went over the side of the road and smashed this guy.
Now, this is the first I learned that earlier in the day they had run down another white bicyclist.
A 72 year old.
Did you know they'd hit two guys, Mr. Kersey?
No.
These guys were busy.
And this guy, lucky for him, he survived.
And as well as the two cyclists, police say that the two teenagers stole three cars and committed burglary all within two hours.
Officers arrested Ayala some hours later for a warrant on obstructing a police officer.
They had no idea that he had been engaged in this kind of activity.
And they happened to look through his cell phone and found the video.
Apparently when he was arrested, Ayala told the cops, you think this juvenile expletive is going to do some expletive?
I'll be out in 30 days!
I guess he knows the juvenile system very well.
He knows the system that believes BIPOCs are discriminated against, thus why they are disproportionately arrested.
He's read his criminal race theory.
That's right.
He knows his stuff.
Well, it turns out Ayala has a long criminal history in the juvie system.
And Jesus's mother, likewise Hispanic, is apparently very sorry.
She says, I don't know why he did this.
I don't know if God can forgive this.
That is the Hispanic mama's reaction.
Jizamir, if I'm pronouncing that correctly, his mama is taking the he didn't do nothing side.
She said that his side of the story will be told and branding it as the truth rather than the inaccuracies the media will try to portray.
Now, why am I talking about this now?
Because just this week, the two were in court.
They were smirking and laughing and making obscene hand gestures, that is a euphemism for flipping the bird, to Mr. Probst's family who was sitting in court.
This was a hearing on which their trial date was set.
So they will go before a judge and jury, unless they cop a deal and get, I don't know, five years, whatever it's going to be.
The trial date has been set for September 16th next year.
I don't know how long, why it takes so long to prepare a trial in a case with all this very vivid video evidence, but there you go.
So as I say, these are two very gruesome updates on two very gruesome cases.
And now, Mr. Kersey, I believe you've got a story about Walt Disney going blackface, or Disney companies going blackface.
Yeah, this is a very interesting story.
I'm going to cut it down as much as I can, but Disney, a company that is just hemorrhaging money at this point because of so many woke movies and series that have just gone completely the audience they're targeting, no one wants to see this
stuff.
And so it's like the Bud Light effect of entertainment.
What happened when Dylan Mulvaney was promoting Bud Light and their sales dropped so much?
Well now Disney is going to double down.
They're looking set to cast Michael B. Jordan as the lead in the live action Hercules on
Michael B. Jordan is a black actor, probably most famous for playing the illegitimate son of Apollo Creed in the black-centric spinoff of the Rocky series starring Sylvester Stallone, but he was also one of the characters in Black Panther.
So as the masses await Snow White, which comes out next year... I'm sorry, what's it called?
Uh, this is going to be Hercules.
I'm sorry.
So they're trying to cast someone to play Hercules.
Yeah.
So basically, basically what Disney's doing is they're taking all of the high grossing cartoons from the 1990s.
Uh, you had the Little Mermaid, you had Aladdin, you had the Lion King.
Uh, they think they did a Cinderella.
Um, they did, uh, now they want to do Hercules.
And they're actually, they want to cast, as the titular Greek god, they're deliberately going to try and cast a non-white character, a non-white actor.
Now, Dwayne Johnson, who went by the stage name when he was a WWF wrestler, The Rock, they made a Hercules movie with him not too long ago that bombed.
But Walt Disney, in an effort to retell their own classical animated stories in a live-action format, have received mixed reviews recently.
Uh, one of the reasons why that is, is because again, they're, they're, they're, I don't know the word if it's actually been invented yet.
You know, you call something whitewashing.
Is it blackwashing when you take a white character and make it non, non-white?
Well, well, it's usually called blackface, but maybe blackwashing is fine too.
Yes.
Take a white character and paint it, paint it, paint it black as I believe the Doors used to sing.
Well, I'll tell you, I think the last great movie about the Greeks is probably going to be Troy, which was a Wolfgang Peterson film that came out in 2004 with Brad Pitt as Achilles and Eric Bana as As the Spartan, oh gosh, who was Paris' brother?
Hector, I'm sorry.
I highly recommend all of our listeners check out that movie.
I think that is the last film we'll ever see for the time being where it is racially distinct in its casting.
Maybe 300 as well, which I both like.
And Helen of Troy wasn't even an egress?
Helen of Troy was a beautiful German actress.
I forgot her name.
She was also in National Treasure.
She was absolutely stunning.
And in fact, the, uh, the, the writer and director, they wanted to write out that, uh, Helen, cause they thought they couldn't find someone as beautiful as what was depicted in Homer's tale.
And then they found, I think her name is Diane Kruger.
Uh, she's gorgeous.
She's, she's, she's absolutely a, um, For lack of a better term, a smoke show.
But anyways, let's get back to this real quick.
For the last few years, names have been floated over who may don the classic golden armor of Hercules and bring the character in live action.
Inside the Magic reported in 2021 that Disney was looking to cast a non-white actor in the titular role, and a year before that, fans weighed in with who they thought should continue the legacy of the Greek hero.
Again, Greek.
Up until about, you know, the last 40 years, Greeks were white to me.
But anyways, Rocketman actor Taron Egerton, he's white Britain.
He's also a frontrunner for the part, despite claims the studio was looking for a non-white lead.
Now, one of the reasons why this is so important is because there's been a backlash recently of what comes with casting a non-white actor in a role that was originally portrayed as white creates a discourse about who should play these characters.
Time and time again, the article says some fans of Disney claim that an adaptation should not diverge from the original source material, hence why actors like Halle Bailey and Rachel Zegler received backlash for being cast as the mermaid Ariel and Princess Snow White, respectively.
Snow White is, of course, an Ariel.
You know, I believe I believe the Little Mermaid is a Dutch myth.
Well, at least Hans Christian Andersen put it together.
I believe it's Danish.
Yeah, you're right.
It is Danish.
And of course they basically gave a middle finger to the audience and they cast this just really anthropomorphic black chick as it's she's just like what is
this it's something that will HP Lovecraft story the Anderson the end
of the story begins very clearly describing her as eyes as blue as the sea that
might have been in the 1991 or 1992 Little Mermaid which I'm sure you watch
many times with your beautiful daughters I
I grew up watching that because I was... She had blue eyes.
Yep.
As does my daughter and son.
But anyways...
As do I. But yeah, I just think as a Disney shareholder, I hate watching this because, you know, Walt Disney did so many great things for entertainment.
And, you know, the 1990s really was a golden era for these beautiful cartoons.
You know, The Lion King is a very great story.
I think The Lion King is a right wing story.
And the live action version just made it this black centric, almost a black power type movie.
Well, are you telling me, though, that Disney has been losing money on these black snow whites and black little mermaids, and now they just want to lose more money?
Why don't you sell your stock?
Short the stock, for heaven's sake.
What are you doing owning a dog like that?
I hate, I hate, I hate, I hate, I hate losing money on stocks, so I'll hold until... Here's the thing, here's the thing.
Disney's been losing money since episode 8 came out of Star Wars, which I know you don't care about episode 7 made a
lot of money Because people are excited to see it and then basically
they took the intellectual property They bought from George Lucas for four billion dollars
And they just said we're gonna recreate new heroes in a very woke manner and the audience is turning it off
And the same thing has begun to happen with Marvel, you know
these these Marvel films when they killed off the white characters of
Robert Downey jr's Iron Man and Chris Evans Captain America this new iteration of the Marvel films
It's not bringing any money.
It's losing money.
And a lot of series.
It is good.
No, it is good.
But the point is, though, it's and we're not going to talk about it today.
We'll probably talk about it next week because we need to.
But, you know, they're basically burning down the past and creating a new future.
And that just kind of happened today with the Charlottesville, Robert E. Lee statue that they burned down.
And The Washington Post actually filmed it all.
And it's actually a very It's very garish and it's hard to watch.
If our listeners haven't seen it yet, seek it out, look at it, because that's what they want to do with every statue of a white man.
It doesn't matter if it's Christopher Columbus, George Washington, Jimmy Carter.
It doesn't matter if it's Bill Clinton.
Meanwhile, I have a heartwarming story of a black father sticking up for his boy.
Yes.
Darryl Clemens, age 43.
He shot his son's coach, Shaquille Lattimore, four times, hitting him in the leg, arm, back, and abdomen, right in front of his team of 10-year-olds and 9-year-olds because the coach was not giving his boy enough playing time.
As I say, standing up for his What sport was this, by the way?
Excuse me?
What sport was this?
This is football.
I beg your pardon.
Okay, football.
Okay.
Yes, yes.
I should have made that clear.
And Coach Darrell Clemons, he says, I didn't see his gun until it was already too late.
I ran.
He shot me in the back.
I fell and he shot me a couple of more times.
And this is what he reportedly said from his hospital bed.
So as I say, he was doing the right thing by his boy.
On the other hand, here's a different story of Starting Young, a Wisconsin boy who was 10 at the time of the shooting, has been ordered to stand trial for murdering his mother because she refused to buy him a virtual reality headset.
He's now 11.
His identity is not being made public, but this case was reviewed by two psychologists who wondered whether he would be able to understand the nature of the crime, and they decided he could.
But George Jane Carroll, said he would stand trial as an adult.
He had no major mental diagnoses and was able to understand what was going on.
The child is accused of shooting his mama, Quiana Mann, age 44, from three feet away at their home in Milwaukee.
After shooting her, he put the gun in the closet and told his 26-year-old sister that mama was dead.
He signed into his mom's Amazon account the very next day and bought himself an Oculus VR headset for $600.
Mama wouldn't buy it for him, but he fixed Mama, all right?
And he told his grandma he was sorry for killing his mother, but then he asked if the package had arrived.
And the race of the shooter is unspecified, but we have a photograph of the mama.
Her name is Quiana, and she certainly looks like she deserves that name, so we can make certain assumptions about the boy.
What a gruesome, awful story.
I don't know.
Did America have people like this 50 years ago, even 35 years ago?
Some 10-year-old boy who kills his mother because she won't buy him something he wants?
I think there's some kind of real degeneration going on here, and that's perhaps indicated by the next story I have for you.
And that is that 40% of Baltimore City High School, where state exams are given, did not have a single student that was proficient in math.
Almost half, in other words, of the high school don't have a single person, single student who's proficient in math.
Not one.
This is educational homicide.
Said Jason Rodriguez, deputy director of People Empowered by the Struggle, a Baltimore-based nonprofit.
He's blaming the school's educational homicide.
Wrong target, Jason Rodriguez.
In any case, in 2021, the group held rallies calling on Baltimore school's CEO, Dr. Sonia Santelises, to resign because of low test scores, failing graduation rates, and a lack of transparency.
Now, after seeing what has been discovered, Rodriguez is renewing these calls for the top boys and girls to resign.
Project Baltimore found 13 Baltimore schools.
Not one student was proficient in math.
It didn't include, interestingly enough, Edgar Street Academy, because it's located in the Baltimore City Detention Center.
I'd like to know how the yardbirds did.
Are they smarter than your average Baltimore high schooler?
I mean, inquiring minds want to know.
Now, in those 13 high schools, 1,736 students took the test, and 1,295 students, or 75%, scored a 1 out of 4.
1 is the lowest level.
You sign your name, and you get a 1.
or 95 students, or 75 percent, scored a one out of four.
One is the lowest level.
You sign your name and you get a one.
Seventy-five percent got a one.
Last year, Baltimore schools got $1.6 billion in taxpayers.
The most ever!
I'm sorry, Mr. Taylor, that number again.
How much?
$1.6 billion.
Do you remember how much Donald Trump wanted to build the wall?
I think it was $3 billion?
You're telling me that Baltimore got the students of a school system that I believe is about 87% black received almost 60% of what Donald Trump was asking to build a wall to build, you know, a pipeline, you know.
That's about how it works out.
That's how it works out.
So yes, $1.6 billion for a holding pen occasionally for the juveniles who wish to stay in it.
The district also got another $800 million in COVID relief from the federal government.
So you add $800 million to the $1.6 billion, you got $2.6 billion.
You could probably practically buy three walls.
So, Rodriguez... You could build a wall around Baltimore to keep them in.
Indeed!
I was just thinking the same thing.
You snatched the words from right out of my mouth.
I didn't mean to.
I'm sorry.
That's okay.
That's okay.
If they're good words, you just snatch away.
So it's not a funding issue, says this guy Rodriguez, who wants the people in the education department to resign.
I'm sure he'd find that if he is running the show, too, he couldn't do any better.
It's a problem of raw material, not the processing.
He says, I think accountability is an issue.
And what do we do with the 1.6 billion?
No, no, Mr. Rodriguez, the problem isn't 1.6 billion, the problem is low IQ, and you could use those 1.6 billion to pay mamas to get the tubes tied, and that's the only way to improve those scores, sorry to say.
But Project Multibar was able to report these test scores to the public only because a source inside leaked them.
The state always releases these data, heavily redacted, so there'd be no other way to know.
Only by leaks do we realize—and I'll repeat the most significant figure here—in those 13 high schools, 1,736 students took the test.
1,295, or 75%, scored a 1 out of 4.
36 students took the test, 1,295 or 75% scored a one out of four.
As I say, put your name on the paper and you'll get a one.
So that is the future generation of leaders.
Dr. Kersey, are you prepared to be led?
I'm going to hit the gym really hard.
I'm going to take a lot of zinc and take my vitamins and try and stay as far away from doctor's office as possible knowing that basically every industry in America, every vocation in America has swallowed the CRT pill with religious zeal and fervor.
That's right.
One of these people who got a one is probably going to be operating on you when you have a brain tumor.
So stay healthy.
You had a story that just lays bare how dreadfully, abysmally ignorant the people of Great Britain are about their history.
I was staggered by this.
It was just a breathtaking story to me.
So please, do tell.
This is from The Guardian, one of our favorite publications.
Half of Britons can't name a black British historical figure, survey finds.
Exclusive to The Guardian.
Majority of British people found to have shockingly little knowledge about black British history.
At least they aren't speaking German.
More than half of Britons know so little about black British history that they cannot name a single historical figure.
And you know that's so shocking when there's so little to know.
All you need is about three sentences and you know it all, 100%.
Maybe a black football player?
Historical figures.
Historical figures.
I keep interrupting.
There is a statue of Mandela in London, so whatever.
Anyways, the researchers found that the UK knows shockingly little about black British history, while 75% of black, I'm sorry, while 75% of British adults surveyed acknowledged that they did not know very much or anything at all about the subject.
More than half, 53%.
That's remarkable.
Four?
black British historical figures and only seven could name more than four.
That's remarkable.
And 7%.
That's remarkable. Four black historical figures from Britain?
Boy.
I can't name one.
I can't name one either.
You and I are just as ignorant as the Brits.
As someone that is genetically the flowering of Albion seed, I'm looking at the British Isles thinking, gosh, I don't know any.
I can't name one.
Anyways.
Although people with dark skin first came to Britain about 12,000 years ago, with the first known people to come directly from Africa settling approximately 2,000 years ago, more than a third... 2,000 years ago, people came from Africa to Britain.
Maybe, well, okay, that's probably some North African who was serving in the Roman legions.
They make it sound like somebody came from the deepest Uganda.
Yeah, they came from North Africa.
What Bologna?
Anyway.
Exactly.
They were part of the ninth that disappeared.
Anyways, or who knows what they were part of.
But anyways, so let's get back to here.
More than a third, 36% of Britain surveyed believed that the first black people migrated to Britain only in the past 200 years, with a further 29% not sure.
One in four believed that it was within the last 100 years, and only nine thought that it was more than 1,500 years ago.
Most people are also underestimated the scale of Britain's involvement in the transatlantic slave trade, which of course the British... Were they the first European country to abolish slavery?
Or to ban slavery?
Am I wrong in that?
Well, they certainly banned the slave trade.
Now, a lot of European countries never had slavery anyway, but they certainly banned it.
I think they banned it in 1834, 1836, and they banned the slave trade even earlier than that, if I'm not mistaken.
But no, no, they can never be forgiven.
Never be forgiven.
White people always are guilty until the end of time.
Yep.
Yep.
More than half, 50% did not know how many people were taken from Africa by the British.
Around half believed the number was 250,000 or fewer, and only 12% of Britons Thought that more than one million people were taken despite the true figure being three times that amount, the report found.
How can they stagger through life not knowing that?
It's amazing!
Yeah, how can they enjoy their fish and chips and a pint down at the pub without, you know, first pouring out one to the three million enslaved Africans that the Britons are forever Linked to, or chained to, anyways.
Bloomsbury Publishing, which commissioned the survey, recently published an acclaimed book, Brilliant Black History, I'm sorry, Brilliant Black British History, celebrating the people who helped build Britain in the fields of science, sport, literature, and law.
Atinuke, the book's award-winning Nigerian-born author, said of the survey's findings,
half of the UK adults cannot name a single black historical figure, and only 7% can name four.
I think disbelief really is the only word. Atinuke, I think logic, fact, and reason is
the only word that I can think of because... Yeah.
It's utterly believable.
I'm very surprised even 7% can name as many as four.
And I wonder who they're talking about.
Well, here are some of the names.
And if I butcher them, ladies and gentlemen, you can excoriate me with an email or you can tweet at me or whatever you want to do.
But anyways, here we go.
This is what Atanuk says that he was He was shocked by, he says in this Guardian article, he would have expected people to name figures such as Quintus Lullus Euribuscus, who became governor of Roman Britain.
The former enslaved Ooladah Equino, who became an abolitionist and writer.
Mary Seacole, who provided sustenance and care for British soldiers during the Crimean War.
Crimean War.
I'm sorry.
Crimean War.
And the composer, Samuel Coolridge Taylor.
I actually looked up this Roman guy, that he was the governor of Britain.
been people with black and brown skin in Britain from the Stone Age through every single era to
the present day. More than that, the forced contribution of millions of black people
before and during the Georgian era changed the course of British history. Helping Britain take
up the first... Go ahead. I actually looked up this Roman guy, that he was the governor of Britain.
They say he was a black man. Yeah, Quintus. I looked him up.
Quintus, whatever. Yeah.
And Wikipedia certainly doesn't say he was black.
Wikipedia says that he was a Berber from North Africa.
North African Berbers are absolutely not black.
This is total and complete baloney.
And he was one.
He came from a Roman province.
And apparently, yes, he was named the governor of Britain, the province of Britain, for a period of four years.
Yes.
But the idea that he is somehow black, this is lunatic.
I've been in North Africa.
I've met Berbers.
There are Berbers with blue eyes.
Berbers are a population that predates the arrival of the Arabs.
So they are lighter skinned and not even Arab.
And to pretend somehow that this guy is a black man is utter, just fantastic fantasy.
And of course the Guardian is passing this along as if it's just the gospel truth.
And those of us who don't realize that ancient Britain was actually governed by a black man, we're supposed to be ashamed for being ignoramuses.
What incredible nonsense.
Can't disagree.
Like, this whole story is, like, one of those things you're just, you're reading this, you're like, whoa.
Yes.
Who are these people?
You know, Mary Seacole, who provided sustenance and care for British soldiers during the Crimean War.
I'm sorry, Crimean War.
Good for her.
I know of Florence Nightingale from the Crimean War, but I don't... Was she Crimean War or First World War?
Was she Crimean War?
I don't know.
In any case, yes, we've heard of Florence Nightingale, but I guess we should have heard of the Secort lady, because she's vastly more important.
I'm sure she's vastly more important.
Saved a whole lot more people, invented probably all kinds of useful drugs.
She's actually an individual who found penicillin.
Oh, I don't doubt it.
I don't doubt it.
I mean, come on, she actually cured AIDS before AIDS was even invented by the CIA.
It takes an African to do that.
Yeah, I want to finish this quote from this Atzanuk person.
She says this, uh, you know, millions of black people before during the Georgian era, uh, changed the course.
Georgians.
Georgians.
Sorry, it's been a long day.
I'm, I'm trying to get over what happened with the Charlottesville statue.
But anyways, she writes this, helping Britain to become the first industrialized nation in the world and a superpower.
Yes.
Millions of black people.
That, of course, literally, what is it, only 7% of white Britons can name more than four black people who did anything of significance.
And I'm sure all of those are soccer players, by the way.
Oh, probably.
You're right.
You're right.
I was just wondering, scratching my head, who on earth are they thinking of?
Well, and this lady says that the Industrial Revolution could never have taken place without all of these wonderful black people in Britain who made it happen.
Isn't that what she's saying?
That's what she's saying.
She's saying millions.
And the Guardian just passes this along.
Yes, gospel truth.
Okay, that's why it's our favorite paper.
It's our favorite paper to laugh at.
A couple more lines for you.
Yes.
This Nigerian is lecturing the British government to drive more integration of black British history in schools and universities, noting that Quote, as our world becomes more polarized and divided, increased inclusivity is needed now more than ever.
All British history needs to be taught as one history.
It's all our history.
No, it's not.
With absolutely no respect for what you're saying.
British history is white Britain history.
It's the indigenous people of Britain's history, which you have nothing to do with.
Go ahead.
It's just effrontery of these people who march into white country and tell, we've been running the place all along.
Didn't you realize that?
Well, no, we didn't realize that.
You didn't realize that?
Well, you're all ignoramuses, and it's shameful.
But the most miraculous thing is white people sit still for this.
Well, shall we move on to another story here?
I think we've got just enough time, if I talk quickly.
After anti-racist consultant Karen Fleshman finished a training at Oakland, California, she took to Facebook to express pride in her work.
Great afternoon training Alameda County District Attorney Pamela Price's victim services team.
Well, as it turns out, the key takeaways in her training of the police department's victim services team was this.
White people are not entitled to harm you.
What on earth is that?
When interacting with white victims of crime, speak up for yourself.
If a white victim continues to harm you, ask that they be transferred.
It's, I mean, how on earth are white crime victims talking to government employees going to be harming them?
And another panel from the training asserts that white supremacy culture is characterized by perfectionism.
Objectivity, a sense of urgency, and perhaps it's harmful to expect government employees to respond to crimes objectively and urgently.
They were giving this training to the district attorney's office.
Well, district attorney Pamela Price is an African-Americanist, and during her campaign she promised to dismantle a discriminatory system that disproportionately stiffed blacks.
With the disproportionate rates of punishment.
And Ron Dellums, who is now a ghost, he was backing Mrs. Price's first run for the DA in 2018, lauded her commitment to end the racial disparity in prosecutions and mass incarceration.
And in April of this year, in a special directive, She says that they will have a presumption that prosecutors will not seek higher sentences for particularly egregious crimes if those higher sentences would result in disparate racial impact.
If a white person uses a gun during a crime or if a white gang member commits robbery, he'll face an enhanced sentence based on that fact.
If the defendant is black, he will not.
So as to avoid disparate impact.
Very simple.
And D.A.
Price promised during her campaign to decriminalize young people, and she stayed true to her pledge.
After six boys and three girls aged 12 through 17 were arrested for three dozen robberies, five of them were released without charges.
Three dozen robberies?
Well, okay.
Even the Oakland branch of the NAACP has called on elected leaders to declare a state of emergency in Oakland.
It blamed failed leadership, including the DA.
Yeah.
They said, yes, they said they complained about District Attorney Price's unwillingness to charge and prosecute people.
Well, she shot back.
She said, we are disappointed that a great African-American pastor—he is the spokesman for the NAACP—and a great African-American organization would take a false narrative on such an important matter.
In other words, we don't care if you're being raped and mugged, and we don't care if your car's being hijacked.
This is a false narrative.
And back in August, opponents began gathering signatures for a recall effort.
I don't know how that's going on.
One of Mrs. Fleshman, that's the white lady who did the training, her training, in other words, she's saying if a white crime victim comes in, don't let the white victim harm you, you know, kick them around.
Her training leads one to wonder if the next step in reorganizing the Oakland justice system is to treat crime victims as well as defendants unequally on the basis of race.
If you're going to charge a perp less and send the perp to jail for a shorter term because he's black, why not seek more lenient sentences if the victim is white?
Don't you think that makes perfect sense, Mr. Kersey?
Yeah, it does.
It does.
Yes, it does.
It does.
I mean, if you can't have enhanced charges to blacks who carry a gun, and then surely they should be punished less if their victim is a white oppressor.
Makes perfect sense.
Makes perfect.
And yet another example.
Yet another example.
And I have to say, you were right, you were right, you were right, many times a day.
Black run America.
Here she is, this black African-Americanist, Who is perpetrating all this on us?
